Hey, forgive my noobishness but I don't have a head for computers and I registered on these forums about 7 minutes ago.
I'm at a university in the UK, and this university has a firewall that apparently protects us from the evils of the internet. It also protects me from the obviously very dangerous TeamSpeak client connecting to a server.
The odd thing is, Ventrilo works fine, and i'd use that except no one else does, so I need to find a way to get TS working while i'm here or i'll be cursed to a life of solo action in MMOs.
Apparently it has something to do with the port TS uses to connect, so I either need to change that port (if that can be done) or at least find out what port that is so I can ask the admins to unblock it. Or possibly, find a server that connects on a port that isn't blocked, except: 1: I don't know how to find that out, 2: I don't know what ports are blocked, 3: I don't actually know what a port is.
Is there a fast and SIMPLE solution to this problem? Thanks!
